His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Senate Bill 118, which was signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday, exempts all state universities and colleges from certain portions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which had been invoked by a local group suing UC Berkeley. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">That group, called Save Berkeley’s Neighborhoods, had sued the university for growing its student population by 30% over the past two decades without doing enough to account for the environmental impact of those students. For now, the university can proceed with its planned enrollment for this fall, but broader questions raised by the lawsuit remain unanswered.

A Pan Am flight headed to New York was forced to turn back in the bad weather. When it pulled into the Foynes terminal, the cold and tired passengers disembarked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They wanted to warm up the Yanks,” said Hausherr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sheridan was a cook at the time, and whipped up the perfect drink to keep the Yanks warm and awake: coffee with Irish whiskey and a little extra sugar and cream for the American palate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is this, asked one of the passengers, Brazilian coffee? No, he said, it’s Irish coffee!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was Sheridan who Buena Vista owner, Jack Koeppler, visited 10 years later looking for help making his own authentic version to bring to San Francisco. Sheridan aided the project and even came over to San Francisco, though it’s unclear if he worked at the Buena Vista. Either way, Sheridan stuck around, and when he died, he was buried in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOSC5JunFpc\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The final recipe Koeppler settled on used aged cream from the San Francisco mayor at the time, who also ran a dairy. To fluff up the cream and help it float, Koeppler added more sugar and a healthy dose of heavy whipping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We now have what they came up with in 1952. It’s been the exact same recipe all this time,” said Hausherr.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Or so the story goes.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Another Take\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“That’s the most widely accepted version,” said Eric Felten, author of “How’s Your Drink?” and a former drink columnist for the Wall Street Journal. But Felten has two problems with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, Felten is not sure that Joe Sheridan really invented the drink to warm up passengers at an airport one night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s possible the drink was actually invented in 1940 or so at a pub called the Dolphin in Dublin,” said Felten.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriousbug]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is based on an account from a Harvard professor of Irish Studies, and on the argument that the cream and sugar were more reasonably added to disguise the taste of coffee during World War II than to warm up passengers one night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However it started, the drink likely spread quickly to the airport (or it’s even possible that Sheridan had the drink, or a similar one, while living nearby in Dublin and drew his inspiration from it). Ultimately, though, it was from the airport that Irish coffee went out into the wider world, as travelers like Delaplane brought back word of a special kind of coffee mixed with whiskey, sugar and cream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other hiccup in the Buena Vista’s tale, though, is that Delaplane isn’t the only traveler who brought word back to the U.S. There’s historical evidence that Irish coffee made its appearance in New York four years before that fateful night at the Buena Vista.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11628139\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM.png\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-11628139\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-800x1070.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"669\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-800x1070.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-160x214.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-240x321.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-375x502.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-520x696.png 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM.png 894w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An ad in the Chronicle in 1956 for the Buena Vista’s Irish coffee. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of the San Francisco Chronicle)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“The first instance I can find of the Irish coffee coming to the U.S. is the food critic for the New York Herald Tribune, named Clementine Paddleford.

Ultimately, though, it was from the airport that Irish coffee went out into the wider world, as travelers like Delaplane brought back word of a special kind of coffee mixed with whiskey, sugar and cream.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other hiccup in the Buena Vista’s tale, though, is that Delaplane isn’t the only traveler who brought word back to the U.S. There’s historical evidence that Irish coffee made its appearance in New York four years before that fateful night at the Buena Vista.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11628139\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 500px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM.png\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-11628139\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-800x1070.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"669\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-800x1070.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-160x214.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-240x321.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-375x502.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM-520x696.png 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/11/Screen-Shot-2017-11-03-at-4.27.48-PM.png 894w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An ad in the Chronicle in 1956 for the Buena Vista’s Irish coffee. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of the San Francisco Chronicle)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“The first instance I can find of the Irish coffee coming to the U.S. is the food critic for the New York Herald Tribune, named Clementine Paddleford.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cb>Democratic Presidential Debates\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This week, CNN hosted the second round of Democratic presidential primary debates at the Fox Theatre in Detroit, Michigan. This time, the stakes were higher and the attacks fiercer between progressives and moderates. On Tuesday, Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders came under fire by former congressman John Delaney for their support of a Medicare for All plan that would replace privately held insurance with a government-sponsored health plan. The next night, Democratic primary front-runner Joe Biden found himself defending his decades-long record on criminal justice, immigration, health care and women’s rights from progressives like Sens. Cory Booker and Kamala Harris. But unlike his first debate appearance in June, Biden appeared steadier and was ready to hit back when he took aim at Booker’s record on crime when he was mayor of Newark, New Jersey, and at Harris for her proposal to expand health care coverage. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Tyrone Beason, staff reporter, L.A.

From videos to print and audio stories, the SF Homeless Project shares the personal stories and struggles of the men, women and families who lack stable housing in San Francisco. It also seeks to answer questions about this crisis unfolding on San Francisco streets and why it’s getting worse, even though the city spends $300 million a year to help a population of roughly 8,000 homeless people through navigation centers, outreach visits and other city services. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Kevin Fagan, reporter, San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>The Hidden Costs of Child Care\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A new report by the Economic Policy Institute and UC Berkeley’s Center for the Study of Child Care Employment reveals that not only is the cost of high-quality child care out of reach for many California families, but also that the people providing the care are perhaps paying the steepest price for it. The study found that early educators are paid a median salary of just $13 per hour and are six times more likely than K-12 teachers to live in poverty. In turn, the low pay and poor working conditions also affect the quality of care children receive. But families in California also face financial pressures around paying for day care, which typically consumes a quarter of their annual income. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lea J.E.

This time, the stakes were higher and the attacks fiercer between progressives and moderates. On Tuesday, Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders came under fire by former congressman John Delaney for their support of a Medicare for All plan that would replace privately held insurance with a government-sponsored health plan. The next night, Democratic primary front-runner Joe Biden found himself defending his decades-long record on criminal justice, immigration, health care and women’s rights from progressives like Sens. Cory Booker and Kamala Harris. But unlike his first debate appearance in June, Biden appeared steadier and was ready to hit back when he took aim at Booker’s record on crime when he was mayor of Newark, New Jersey, and at Harris for her proposal to expand health care coverage. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Tyrone Beason, staff reporter, L.A.

From videos to print and audio stories, the SF Homeless Project shares the personal stories and struggles of the men, women and families who lack stable housing in San Francisco. It also seeks to answer questions about this crisis unfolding on San Francisco streets and why it’s getting worse, even though the city spends $300 million a year to help a population of roughly 8,000 homeless people through navigation centers, outreach visits and other city services. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Kevin Fagan, reporter, San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>The Hidden Costs of Child Care\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A new report by the Economic Policy Institute and UC Berkeley’s Center for the Study of Child Care Employment reveals that not only is the cost of high-quality child care out of reach for many California families, but also that the people providing the care are perhaps paying the steepest price for it. The study found that early educators are paid a median salary of just $13 per hour and are six times more likely than K-12 teachers to live in poverty. In turn, the low pay and poor working conditions also affect the quality of care children receive. But families in California also face financial pressures around paying for day care, which typically consumes a quarter of their annual income. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Not everyone has to be personally offended by a word to make it a racial slur.\" She said the newsroom staff was almost unanimously in support of the decision. \"When the announcement went out to our staff, I think in the first five minutes I received about 30 emails that said it's about time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p2\">When asked whether the paper considered survey results last year that showed 90 percent of Native Americans did not find the terms offensive, Cooper said, \"We don’t make word decisions based on popularity contests. We have decided we believe that it is a racial term.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2013/10/30/san-francisco-chronicle-washington-redskins/\" target=\"_blank\">listen to the entire interview\u003c/a> here:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/117860731&color=ff5500\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca name=\"AP\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Full AP report:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal trademark board ruled Wednesday that the Washington Redskins nickname is \"disparaging of Native Americans\" and that the team's trademark protections should be canceled, a decision that applies new financial and political pressure on the team to change its name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2-1 ruling from the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board came in a case that has been working its way through legal channels for more than two decades.

That process could take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the second time the board had issued an opinion on the case. A similar ruling from 1999 was overturned on a technicality in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've seen this story before,\" Redskins attorney Bob Raskopf said. \"And just like last time, today's ruling will have no effect at all on the team's ownership of and right to use the Redskins name and logo. We are confident we will prevail once again.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling involves six uses of the \"Redskins\" name trademarked by the team from 1967 to 1990. If it stands, it would mean the team can continue to use the name, but it would lose a significant portion of its ability to protect the financial interests connected to it. If others printed the name on sweatshirts or other apparel without permission, it would become more cumbersome to go after such groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Courts overturned the board's previous ruling in part because the plaintiffs waited too long to voice their opposition after the original trademarks were issued. The case was relaunched in 2006 by a younger group of Native Americans who had recently become adults and therefore would not have able to file a case earlier. The hearing was held in March of last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chorus of critics against the use of the name has grown over the past year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Saturday, a major sector of the United Church of Christ voted to urge its 40,000 members to boycott the Redskins. Half of the U.S. Senate recently wrote letters to the NFL urging a change, one of the letters stating that \"racism and bigotry have no place in professional sports.\" D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray suggested Wednesday the name will almost certainly have to change if the team ever wants to build a new stadium in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Snyder, who has vowed repeatedly never to change the name, declined comment as he walked off the field after a minicamp practice Wednesday. Redskins players have mostly avoided the topic, aware of a potential conflict because they are employed by the team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our job as players is to focus on what we can on this field day-in and day-out and let the legal people take care of that stuff,\" quarterback Robert Griffin III said after practice. \"And when it's the right time, then we can voice whatever it is we know about the situation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Redskins have responded to critics by creating an Original Americans Foundation to give financial support to Native American tribes. Suzan Shown Harjo, a lead figure in the trademark case, called the foundation \"somewhere between a PR assault and bribery.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of a name change quickly hailed the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Daniel Snyder may be the last person in the world to realize this,\" Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on the Senate floor, \"but it is just a matter of time until he is forced to do the right thing.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n",

It doesn't force the team to abandon the name, but it comes at a time of increasing criticism of team owner Dan Snyder from political, religious and sports figures who say it's time for a change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Redskins quickly announced that they will appeal, and the cancellation for trademark protections will be on hold while the matter makes its way through the courts. That process could take years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the second time the board had issued an opinion on the case. A similar ruling from 1999 was overturned on a technicality in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've seen this story before,\" Redskins attorney Bob Raskopf said. \"And just like last time, today's ruling will have no effect at all on the team's ownership of and right to use the Redskins name and logo. We are confident we will prevail once again.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling involves six uses of the \"Redskins\" name trademarked by the team from 1967 to 1990. If it stands, it would mean the team can continue to use the name, but it would lose a significant portion of its ability to protect the financial interests connected to it. If others printed the name on sweatshirts or other apparel without permission, it would become more cumbersome to go after such groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Courts overturned the board's previous ruling in part because the plaintiffs waited too long to voice their opposition after the original trademarks were issued. The case was relaunched in 2006 by a younger group of Native Americans who had recently become adults and therefore would not have able to file a case earlier. The hearing was held in March of last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chorus of critics against the use of the name has grown over the past year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Saturday, a major sector of the United Church of Christ voted to urge its 40,000 members to boycott the Redskins. Half of the U.S. Senate recently wrote letters to the NFL urging a change, one of the letters stating that \"racism and bigotry have no place in professional sports.\" D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray suggested Wednesday the name will almost certainly have to change if the team ever wants to build a new stadium in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Snyder, who has vowed repeatedly never to change the name, declined comment as he walked off the field after a minicamp practice Wednesday. Redskins players have mostly avoided the topic, aware of a potential conflict because they are employed by the team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our job as players is to focus on what we can on this field day-in and day-out and let the legal people take care of that stuff,\" quarterback Robert Griffin III said after practice. \"And when it's the right time, then we can voice whatever it is we know about the situation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Redskins have responded to critics by creating an Original Americans Foundation to give financial support to Native American tribes. Suzan Shown Harjo, a lead figure in the trademark case, called the foundation \"somewhere between a PR assault and bribery.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of a name change quickly hailed the decision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Daniel Snyder may be the last person in the world to realize this,\" Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on the Senate floor, \"but it is just a matter of time until he is forced to do the right thing.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
